    Spinal Deformity Correction

Spinal deformities can affect posture, balance, mobility, and overall quality of life. Conditions such as scoliosis, kyphosis, and other spinal alignment disorders may lead to chronic pain, breathing difficulties, nerve compression, and reduced physical function if left untreated.

What is Spinal Deformity?

A spinal deformity is an abnormal curvature or misalignment of the spine that may develop during childhood, adolescence, or adulthood. Some deformities are congenital, while others result from degeneration, trauma, infection, osteoporosis, or neuromuscular conditions.

When conservative treatment is ineffective or the deformity continues to progress, spinal deformity correction surgery may be recommended to restore spinal balance and stability.
